"And you both are already mated?" Sirius said weakly
Harry nodded, nervousness filled his system, Sirius decided to take in a deep breath as he rubbed his face in exasperation
"Can I have some time to think about this?" Sirius doesn't want to say what he is really thinking about snivellus… Because he knew that would probably piss Harry off
"Of course" Harry was relieved Sirius didn't say anything nasty, Sirius kissed Harry's forehead and then walked out the room, Harry knew that there was a Black Library so he decided to go and look if there was any information on Kilgharrah
Harry made his way to the Library and looked at the sections on the book case, sadly there was no information regarding Kilgharrah, although Harry noticed that there were a vast amount of subjects that Hermione would love. Harry made a little mental reminder to invite Hermione over sometime during the summer
Harry thought about Dumbledore, did the old man plan everything? He sent Harry to the Dursleys which was hell and that made Harry wonder if he had any part in the Triwizard Tournament, Ron then came into his mind, Ron was definitely on the loyalty of Dumbledlore, Dumbledore tried to keep Harry at the Dursleys… Harry got lost in his thoughts and was suddenly snapped out of it when some window came through the window. Harry called Hedwig to him and started writing a letter,
Dear Draco,
I know it's the first day of summer but I was hoping that you'd be free today because some stuff happened today and I really need to tell someone
Harry
Harry handed the letter to hedwig and pet her, she nipped on his finger
"Bring this to Draco for me" Harry said softly, Hedwig nodded back and then flew away, Harry couldn't stop thinking about Liam, he understood why Severus obliviated him but he just wished he knew about being- wait If he didn't know about being pregnant then how did someone else find out?
Hedwig came back faster than Harry expected, Harry opened the letter
Harry
You're in luck, I am free today, hurry up and get your arse over here
-Your hot friend
Harry chuckled at Dracos response, Harry tells Remus that he is going to hangout with Draco then goes to the fireplace. Harry grabs a handful of floo powder and whispers
"Malfoy manor"
Harry walks into the living room of Malfoy manor and sees Draco sitting at the table doing homework
"Draco" Harry says causing Draco to look up, he smiles and walks over to Harry to greet him with a hug
"Hello Harry" Draco says
"What did you need to talk about?" Draco added, Harry smiles awkwardly
"It's best if we sat down when talking about this" Harry motioned to the couch near them, the two boys sat down next to each other, as Harry was about to start speaking Narcissa walked in and saw the two
"Hello Harry, its the first day of summer did you miss us that much?" Narcissa joked and Harry chuckled
"Yes but I have some stuff I need to tell Draco" Harry said while scratching the back of his head, Narcissa nodded in understanding she then went over to the table to grab her book and then left the room again, Harry looked at Draco and started talking
"So, you know how i wasn't on the Hogwarts Express to go home?" Harry gestured with his hands, Draco nodded
"It's because I was cursed by someone" Harry said looking into Draco's eyes
"Do you know who?" Draco said holding Harry's hand in comfort, Harry shook his head no
"Turns out I was pregnant, and the spell that hit me was a abortion one-" Harry got choked up talking about it, Draco gasped and put a hand over his mouth
"When did you-" Draco started and Harry knew what he meant
"Do you remember the beginning of the year and I was poisoned?" Draco nodded and Harry continued
"It was a illegal love potion and the only way to cure it was sex so Sev and I" Harry continued and Draco nodded in understanding
"How come you never told me you two yeah know?" Draco motioned and Harry blushed
"Because he obliviated me" Harry said sadly
"Why" Draco didn't understand
"To protect me" Harry said simply, Draco nodded again
"I didn't even know I was pregnant, and for some reason It still hurts" Harry said with tears in his eyes
"It makes sense why you'd feel hurt, I mean that baby was YOUR child" Harry nodded and sniffed
"Was it a girl?" Draco asked rubbing Harry's back, Harry shook his head
"It was a boy" Draco gasped, since Draco was in a pureblood family, boys were important for heirs, he knew Harry didn't care but Harry and Severus are the last of their bloodlines
"His name was going to be Liam ray Potter" Harry whispered
"Beautiful name" Harry looked up to see Lucius and Narcissa in the doorway, Narcissa was the one that had talked, Harry nodded with a sad smile
"Where is he now?" Lucius said softly, while sitting on the other couch
"I used my magic to bury him" Harry wiped his face,
"We will find out who did this" Lucius promised while looking at Harry with a serious face, Harry nodded and gasped at remembering something
"What is it Harry?" Narcissa said with a concerned face
"The man said something, he said, Im sorry my boy" Harry said with a confused face, Lucius' and narcissa's eyes widened, a shadow darkened on Lucius' face
"Dumbledore" Lucius whispered with venom dripping from his voice, Harry looked at lucius shocked, his face morphed into one with anger, the magic pressure in the room escalated
"Harry, we will get him back for this" Draco said to Harry to calm him down, Harry nodded and leaned back on the couch with his face in his hands
"I also told Sirius about Severus" Narcissa sighed in sympathy for Harry,
"Harry you feel like cooking?"Draco proposed Harry's frown was replaced with a smile, The two boys got up and went into the kitchen
"I want to bake apple pie" Harry said jumping excitedly as if all the pain disappeared, Draco nodded
"Okay talk me through this" Draco said awkwardly not knowing where to place his hands
"First we wash our hands" Harry said, the two walk to the sinks and wash their hands Scrub adubdub, After they washed their hands Harry went over to the closet hehe, where all the ingredients were, Harry pulled out All purpose flour,salt,vegetable shortening, He handed them to Draco who placed it on the counter, Harry went over to the fridge and grabbed a bottle of cold water and some unsalted butter. Harry went over to another drawer to get the measurement cups. And went to another cabnet to get two bowls and a pot and a pan for the actual pie.(i searched up a apple pie recipe and a crust recipe ik im extra)
Harry gave Draco the measurement cup 2 and ½ of flour Harry showed Draco how to level it. Draco poured the flour into one bowl, harry at the same time poured 1 and ¼ teaspoons of salt into the same bowl
"Now mix these two together while I get the butter and shortening" harry instructed
Harry went over to measure 6 teaspoons of butter and ¾ cup of vegetable shortening, Harry added it to Dracos bowl and then transfigured a fork into a pastry cutter, Harry instructed Draco on how to mix it into the flour
"Cut the butter and shortening until it resembles a course meal"
Harry went over to the water, he measure out ½ in a cup and then added ice, he stirred it around till the ice melted. Harry remeasured the water and poured out any extra water till it was back down to ½
"This is where things get tricking, mind if I take over?" Harry held out his hands for the bowl, Draco nodded and watched Harry. Harry put in 1 tablespoon of the water then mixed it with a wooden spoon. He kept on adding the water but then stopped once the dough started forming large clumps.
"Draco can you take some flower and rub it on the counter" Harry picked up the dough, Draco sprinkled flour on the counter and then rubbed it around, Harry placed the dough on the counter and then started kneading it. Once he finished he rolled it up into a ball. Harry found some magic plastic wrap and wrapped the dough tightly
"We have to let this sit for 2 hours so I think we can make the filling around the 30 minute mark, so how about a game of chess?" Harry said looking at Draco, Draco nodded with a smirk, Harry set a 1 and a half hour time
"You do know you are going to lose right?" Draco said, Harry nodded and chuckled
BACK AT GRIMMAULD PLACE
Sirius sat on the couch waiting for Severus to arrive, he needed to talk to him , Severus stepping in from the fireplace
"Black" Severus nodded in greeting
"Snape" Sirius decided not to call him Snivellus no matter how much he wanted to,
"Sit please" Sirius said weakly and motioned to the chair, Severus nodded and sat down
"Im guessing Harry told you" Severus read Sirius like an open book, Sirius nodded
"Look Sn-Severus, Harry is like a son to me and I only want to see him happy so what is your-" Sirius didn't know what to say next but Severus knew, Severus nodded and leaned forward as he looked Sirius in the eye
"I love Harry, and I haven't even told him that yet but he knows, I only want the best for him too" Severus said sincerely and Sirius looked straight in to Severus eyes and nodded, Sirius held out his hand for Severus to shake, Severus took it but still commented
"You know this means I don't like you right?" Severus said with a obvious face
"I think its written in the stars for us to dislike eachother" The two cracked a smile, the smile disappeared half a second later
"Is that all Sirius?" Severus asked softly, Sirius nodded, Severus made his way back to the fireplace
"Actually no" Sirius spoke up, Severus turned around
"Would you like to see where Harry buried Liam?" Sirius motioned to the back of the house, Sirius could see Severus' eyes soften, Severus nodded and walked towards Sirius
"This way" Sirius led Severus to the back meadow, there was a blank patch of grass with a rectangular patch of flowers, there was a small gravestone with the name Liam Ray Potter , The boy we never knew but still loved. Severus bent down and got on one knee, Sirius watched sadly, Severus felt a few tears prickling his eyes, he caressed one of the flowers. Sirius placed a hand on Severus back in comfort
"I understand how young Harry is, and to have been pregnant, but I think you two would've been wonderful parents" Sirius said
"Thank you, still don't like you though" Severus sneered, Sirius chuckled
"Would you like to stay for a cup of tea?" Sirius asked and thought, might as well get to know him
Back with Draco and Harry
Harrys timer went up and Harry stood up
"Checkmate" Draco said for the 5th time
"Bloody hell Draco, snog the bloody board" Harry said as he lost for the 5th time, Draco laughed at Harry's misfortune
Harry and Draco made their way to the kitchen, Harry started to preheat the oven at 425 degrees, Harry took out the dough and put flour on the counter again
"So you are going to roll this dough out to fit in this pan" Harry instructed and put the pan beside Draco, but before Draco started Harry grabbed ⅓ of the dough for the cover later
Harry grabbed 8 apples, he peeled, cored and sliced them, but then put them to the side. Harry grabbed a saucepan, he put in half a cup of butter and waited for it to melt, once it melted he put in 3 tablespoons of all purpose flour, he stirred in the flower till it created a paste. Harry then added ¼ cup of water, ½ cup of brown and white sugar, he mixed it all and brought it to a boil, then he reduced the temp to let it simmer. Draco finished and Harry draped the dough in the pan, he then handed the cut up apples to Draco to place in the pie tin. Harry put on mittens and picked up the pot once Draco finished placing the apples inside. Harry slowly poured the sugar butter liquid inside once it filled to the brim he grabbed the left over dough and made a lattice pattern to lay on top. Harry placed it in the oven
"So we let that bake for 15 minutes at 450 degrees then lower it to 350 for 40 minutes" Harry said after he made a time for 15 minutes
TIME SKIP TO WHEN THE PIE IS READY
Harry's second timer went off, Harry got up to get it out of the oven
"Finally, Im bloody starving" Draco groaned and followed Harry as he got up
Lucius and Narcissa entered the room
"What's that smell?" Narcissa asked and Harry took out the pie to place of the counter
"Harry Potter's classic Apple Pie!" Harry said with a smile
Harry got a plate out for everybody, suddenly two people floo'd into the manor, everybody turned to see who it was, It was Severus and Sirius
"Severus, Sirius?" Harry said confused
"He approves, Harry" Severus said to Harry with a small smirk, Harry looked at Sirius for justification, Sirius nodded, Harry nodded and hugged Sirius, Harry walked up to Severus
"Hi" Harry said
"Hello to you too" Severus said as he gave Harry a little kiss, suddenly everybody turned away
"What's that delicious smell?" Sirius asked looked at Harry
"My apple pie" Harry said excitedly
"Would you two like some also?" The two men nodded at Harry's question, for some reason everybody was starving
Harry was preparing everybodies pieces, Everybody was sitting at the long table, Harry brought the plates with the pie on it, nobody ate till Harry was sitting down, Harry sit down
"Enjoy" Harry said to everyone, They all took a bite and groaned
"HOly sHiT" Sirius was in heaven, Narcissa sent him a stern look for cursing, Harry chuckled, Severus was next to Harry and leaned down to whisper in his ear
"You can cook for me any day, of course you'd wife material" The mention of wife made Harry turn red, Draco started laughing
"Harry can I have the recipe?" Narcissa asked Harry with a smile, Harry nodded and Lucius whispered
"God bless" Draco snorted at the comment and looked at Harry, Harry was looking at Severus, Draco hoped for them to never split
After everyone finished their food
"Thank you for having me, I should be going now" Harry said with a smile, he hugged Narcissa and Draco goodbye and shook hands with Lucius, Harry and Severus kissed goodbye and again everybody turned away, Severus went back to his own place. Harry and Sirius went back to Grimmauld place. Harry found a letter placed on his bed
Why was Rita Skeeter owling him?
It has been shared that you are a dark fae, i hope you know i am on your side, I don't like Dumbledore either, Many people don't know what a dark fae, and some are afraid they are dark creatures, so I was hoping to interview to see if you could shed some light on it?
Rita Skeeter
Harry read the letter twice to make sure his eyes weren't deceiving him, Harry decided that it couldn't hurt
I would be delighted to give an interview, is this upcoming saturday around 3pm a good time?
Harry Potter
Harry handed the letter over to Hedwig,
"Bring this to Rita Skeeter for me girl" Harry pet her and she flew away, about 20 minutes later Hedwig was back
That would be perfect, thank you
Rita skeeter
Harry had 2 days till saturday, it was late and Harry was tired, he decided to go to sleep, before Harry went to sleep he saw a figure crawling into his bed, Harry sat up in alarm
"Hush it's just me" Severus whispered, Harry didn't question it, he snuggled into Severus' warmth, Severus wrapped arms around Harry, Harry fell back into a dream
There was a boy in front of him, a little boy, he had more manageable hair, it was curly but not unruly, the boy had dark green eyes
"Hello dad" The boy said as he walked up to Harry
"Liam?" Harry whispered with tears filling his eyes
"Yes dad?" Liam answered, Harry ran up to him and hugged him
"Im so sorry I couldn't save you" Harry whispered into Liam's shoulder
"Its okay dad, don't forget me" Liam said as he faded away
Harry woke up with a gasp, Severus was no longer next to him but he could smell Severus on the pillow,
SKIP TO SATURDAY cuz i can only stall so much
Today is the interview, Harry meets Rita at a cafe in London
" " Rita leans over shakes his hand, Her magic quill and note pad was on the table
"Please call me Harry" Harry smiled, Harry decided to only be nice
"Then please call me Rita" Harry nodded and got comfortable
"So Harry what can you tell us about Dark Fae?" Rita leaned forward with a nice smile
"Okay so Dark Fae, they are descendants of The Phoenix, the one that started all of existence for magic basically, they are extinct except for my mate and I, I am a sun fae also known as a Dark Phoenix fae, which means I am a direct descendant of The Phoenix, My mate is a moon fae which is the second more powerful fae" Rita nodded with a smile and looked at her quill
"So are Dark fae dark creatures?" Harry smiled as he was waiting for this question
"No they are not, we are grey creatures, so we aren't considered Dark or Light" Harry explained with hand gestures
Rita looked at her notes and asked another question
"What features are there to a Dark fae"
"Well every dark fae has wings, and horns but the horns grown in gradually, for some reason mine grew in quickly, recently there has been a new add on to these traits" Harry took off his glamour on his hair and Rita gasped
"I now have long curly hair and barely pointed ears, luckily my hair is silky and smooth, instead of a nest" Harry said while raking his fingers through his hair
"Does the wizarding world have any idea on who your mate might be?" Rita asked with a sparkle in her eye
"Only my closest friends know who my mate is, I sadly cannot reveal who it is currently, but perhaps when the war is over" Harry shrugs his shoulders, Rita nods her head
"Alright thank you, I think that will be all" Rita says while gathering her stuff
"Have a nice day" harry says while walking away
Harry decides to floo to Severus' place
"Severus?" Harry calls out to the empty room
"Harry?" Severus calls back, Severus walks down the stairs to find Harry
"I have something to tell you" Harry says sadly
